Donald Trump offers $1 billion for the Bills. Check will be sent in 1 hour.

[Stewie]

I'm not sure he'd be a good owner, but who knows?

If you didn't make it past the first few series of Sunday night's Hall of Fame Game, you're forgiven. Even with the return of football, preseason action can be a bit hit-or-miss once the first-teamers are off the field.

But if you did tune out early — or failed to tune in at all — you missed a pretty interesting little nugget from NBC announcer Al Michaels, who passed on a conversation he had with prospective Buffalo Bills owner Donald Trump.

“He said he offered $1 billion — all cash, no contingencies, immediate closing. He’d have the check in one hour,” Michaels said, per Pro Football Talk. “He was a little miffed that it went out for bid again.”

Trump, brah. There's a zero percent chance this story is legit.

Agreed. He has no intention of buying the Bills. From what I've read, Trump grossly exaggerates his actual net worth. Chances are that he's not even a true billionaire.

The NFL has to approve it anyway. They look in to finances with a fine tooth comb to see if he has the cash.

[Rain Man]

He has a reputation of being unethical in business. The NFL wouldn't really want to sell to someone who's been known to backstab his suppliers and others.

Fans are different. They're like the terminator. You can't kill a fan.

[Mr. Laz]

Trump is the very definition of attention whore


NFL doesn't want any part of that ... Jerry Jones is bad enough

[Eleazar]

They probably don't want him in the league because he'd spend money like crazy and make the rest of them look bad.

That and he would get Trace Adkins to sing the opening... of the...


Nevermind.

[Bowser]

Trump should just start his own football league. WAY more money to be had in that.

[Mr. Laz]

I don't think Trump spends as much money as he tries to looks like spends.

He would be more like Al Davis, suing the league and other owners all the time to try to get his way.

The USFL returns!

[RealSNR]

Off topic, but I'd love to see Mark Cuban own an NFL franchise.

Put a young guy in there instead of all the silver-spooned assholes who never have anything interesting to say.

[Sorce]

“He said he offered $1 billion — all cash, no contingencies, immediate closing. He’d have the check in one hour,” Michaels said, per Pro Football Talk. “He was a little miffed that it went out for bid again.”

He does realize all cash is not the same thing as having a check ready in one hour...

You and me both. But I would be willing to say that is one tough "Good 'Ol Boys Club" to crack into.

[Skyy God]

Or he's a self-promoting, net worth-inflating, unethical dipshit. One of the two.

Cuban couldn't crack into the MLB "Good 'Ol Boys Club."

He's gonna have to make do with what he's got. Don't think any sport is going to approve him as a new owner.

['Hamas' Jenkins]

Trump is constantly leveraged to the hilt.

Well cave, the owners are already in line with your suggestion, so I guess I'll go with what Cochise said.

He's Frank McCourt

[InChiefsHeaven]

I remember one episode of The Apprentice where they showed the gaudy ass apartment he lives in...so ridiculously full of gold trim...all he need do is melt that shit down to have the cash.

[InChiefsHeaven]

I take it back. I guess it was Ivana's pad:

I have a list of people I would like to see put on a plane and then that plane flown into the side of a mountain:

Any and all Kardashians
Paris Hilton
Donald Trump
Lebron James
John Elway
Miley Cyrus or Justin Bieber (Still convinced they're the same person)
Dr. Phil

I get pretty fucking annoyed at anyone who constantly talks just to hear their own voice. Trump is a blowhard and I wish he would contract EbolaAIDS.

[Skyy God]

I'm going to offer $1K (for charity) if I can dip my balls in your mouth.

[BigRedChief]

He already tried that when the NFL wouldn't sell him a team in the past.

This. He would be a nobody if daddy hadn't given him a $300 million head start.

Yep-check out the DVD about his golf course in Scotland-made tons of promises, screwed over the residents and ruined a nature preserve. Trump is a DBAG of the highest order.

[Dayze]

I'm sure the Donald has one they can use.

[Halfcan]

One Billion for the Bills?? LMAO- Bon Jovi or Trump will be over paying big time!

[keg in kc]

I think it would be great. One less team in competition for the AFC title.

[Hog's Gone Fishin]

Sorry, I like Donald , he foots the bill whenever I visit, and I know he comes across as arrogant but he's a really smart dude that is all about doing what it takes to make money.

I gotta say I kinda idolize him.

[TribalElder]

Talk about a waste of money

[scho63]

On a sad side note, Jim Kelly is not doing well and doesn't look like he has long to live.

yeah I just now watched my recorded HOF game, and man....:eek: he did not look good at all
He was one of my more favorite QBs when I was growing up. Dude seems like a tough SOB that I wouldn't want to mess with.


**** that cancer shit. :#

[hometeam]

If the NFL blackballed Cuban, Trump has no chance.

[Dave Lane]

He doesn't have any money and he is an epic idiot.

Agreed. He has no intention of buying the Bills. From what I've read, Trump grossly exaggerates his actual net worth. Chances are that he's not even a true billionaire.

This.

And even if he were serious, theres no bank on earth that would loan him the money, he's already defaulted on several massive loans at banks around the world.

He is human puke, he needs to die already.

[TEX]

I remember one episode of The Apprentice where they showed the gaudy ass apartment he lives in...so ridiculously full of gold trim...all he need do is melt that shit down to have the cash.

I saw it too. I know you're joking but you're pretty spot on in that he could get the $ easily by going liquid with some of his assets. He owns TONS of property outright that could be sold to get cash if need be. Those who think he doesnt have the means are wrong.

My personal opinion is he's just talking **** and would be bad for the NFL. But he could definitely buy the team if he were serious.

[TEX]

This.

And even if he were serious, theres no bank on earth that would loan him the money, he's already defaulted on several massive loans at banks around the world.

He could raise the money by selling assets alone. He wouldnt need a loan. Do a search on properties he owns outright, just in this country, and have a calculator handy. You'll see...

Seeing him on Sunday was just a gut shot.

Just breaks your heart.

[Bufkin]

I'm not saying I'm a fan of Trump or anything, but for those saying he's not absolutely loaded and just plays it off well, that's senseless.

[srvy]

Just remember many Fathers out there going through the same thing without the money and resources Jim Kelly has at his disposal. I thought he looked better than I expected. I have been around relatives and friends in there finale stages of cancer and were confined to a bed.

[DJJasonp]

Wasnt trump involved in the USFL?
